First and foremost you should know that this game should NOT be played by any "casual" gamers. It is not easy by any stretch of the imagination. Even for hardcore gamers, this game will take a lot of trial and error. Patience is key.
Another thing that should be said is that if you play games for the story, this probably isn't your thing either. Because there barely is one.
This game is by far one of the best game I have played on my PS3. The gameplay is engaging and addicting! It takes timing and skill, you'll never beat this game by running through it trying to swing your sword in every direction.
After you start playing, you won't want to stop playing for a long time. The game can take awhile to complete as well. I beat the game in 57 hours. From what I've heard that's about 20 hours faster than average. So there is a lot of playtime to be had, and with the addition of a new game +, the game could last forever.
The best part about this game is the multiplayer. The co-op is seamlessly integrated into the story. If you are a soul you will help another player complete his level, and if you are human you can request help to complete your level. The competitive multiplayer can be annoying when you are the one being invaded, but gratifying if you are the invading soul.
Demon's Souls is an amazing game, its worth a shot by any gamer who is worth their salt. Definitely not easy, but it is, however, very very rewarding. Give it a shot, I promise you won't be dissappointed!
